Also maintaining the aura of Israeli righteousness. By banning this they are basically claiming this footage is illegitimate or complicit with criminal activity.
Ironically the thing that kind of got me questioning the narrative around ukraiane is how there was never a video from the Russian perspective and it seemed hard to believe that it was actually that one sided of a fight that there wasn't some random videos of successful attacks or defenses by Russia.
Then when you start applying that same lens of framing to everything else it was a lot less surprising to me than the libs of reddit that the counter offensive wasn't literally just ukranine skipping into Russia while handing out flowers.
Maintaining the aura of Israeli invincibility is 100% key to that settler colonial project.
This makes perfect sense.
